When Flatpak's Sandbox Cracks

Introduction Flatpak promises a secure runtime for Linux applications through container-like isolation, relying on bubblewrap namespaces, syscall filtering, and portal interfaces. In theory, each app should operate inside a strong sandbox, disconnected from the host system. But in reality, experience shows gaps, tiny cracks through which apps may escape with serious consequences.

Deep Agents

Using an LLM to call tools in a loop is the simplest form of an agent. This architecture, however, can yield agents that are “shallow” and fail to plan and act over longer, more complex tasks. Applications like “Deep Research”, “Manus”, and “Claude Code” have gotten around this limitation by implementing a combination of four things: a planning tool, sub agents, access to a file system, and a detailed prompt.

Tesla Found Partly Liable in 2019 Autopilot Death

wired.com Aarian Marshall 2025-12-31 03:41:28

A Miami jury found Tesla partially liable Friday in a 2019 crash that killed one person and injured another—all while the driver of the Model S used the automaker’s Autopilot driver assistance feature. The jury found Tesla liable for $200 million in punitive damages, plus an additional $43 million in compensatory damages. (Because of state laws, the company will likely end up paying less.) A jury found the automaker one-third responsible for the crash; it found the driver of the Tesla, who sett

A jury in Florida has found Tesla partially liable for a 2019 crash involving the company's Autopilot self-driving feature, The Washington Post reports.
